    St. Catherine's Monastery

    Your day begins with a private pick-up from your hotel, followed by a drive to the Saint Catherine Monastery, located around 230 km from Sharm El Sheikh. Nestled at the foot of Moses Mountain (also known as the Sinai Mountains), the monastery was named after Saint Catherine in the early 11th century and honors the Christian martyr from Alexandria. Next, you'll continue your tour with a visit to Mount Sinai, or Jabal Musa. Standing at 2,285 meters (7,497 feet), this iconic mountain is located in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula, near the city of Saint Catherine. It is surrounded by other towering peaks, including Mount Catherine, which rises to 2,629 meters (8,625 feet), making it the highest peak in Egypt. After your exploration, you'll be driven back to your hotel.
